When Steve and Bucky came back, Steve looked at Ye Xi and said, "Hill, what are you holding?"

"A gift from someone else." Ye Xi said.

Ye Xi came to the table with that seemingly valuable box in his arms, opened it, and immediately exclaimed.Inside the box, there is a delicate and beautiful cream cake dotted with attractive red strawberries.

"Wow! Looks delicious." Bucky said, "Who gave it to you?"

"A passing old grandfather!" Ye Xi said without hesitation, dressed like that, he really looked like an old man.Fortunately, the priest is handsome, otherwise that outfit would be really wretched and old-fashioned.So, the key is to look at the face, this cruel world of looking at the face.

Americans are born with a big heart. If it were changed to China, who would dare to eat something of unknown origin.The ancestors said that if you don't have anything to do, you can either rape or steal. Who knows if there is no poison in the things that are delivered to your door.But for Ye Xi's family, Bucky said, "What a rich and kind old man!" Then he happily greeted Steve to eat.

I have to admit that the priest's craftsmanship is really not covered. This skill is easy to bake and remember, and conquered the stomachs of Ye Xi and Ye Xi's family.He is good-looking and knows how to cook. He can go to the hall and go to the kitchen. No matter how you look at it, the priest is a good candidate for marriage.It's a pity that you were born before I was born, and you are already old when I was born.Ye Xi couldn't stop sighing. When he grows up in a few years, the priest will definitely be old, wrinkled, and ugly.That's right, he is such a realistic person, looking cruelly at his face.So it's a pity for the priest, he should continue to believe in God!He will no longer compete with God.

That night, Ye Xi didn't have diarrhea like the last time. It can be seen that, as the priest said, the ingredients used to bake the cakes this time are all fresh and high-quality.Lying on the bed tossing and turning, all Ye Xi could think about was the priest. He always felt that this priest was a little strange, a little... dangerous?

So, should he go and play with the priest tomorrow?

The priest said he would wait for him in the church, and there would be delicious snacks.

but……

I always feel that once I am tempted, I can't come back.

************

The next morning, at the dinner table.

"Hill, do you want to go to the wheat fields with us?" Steve asked him.

"To the wheat field?" Ye Xi raised his head and asked in a surprised tone.

"Yes, you can go...to glean ears of wheat." Looking at Ye Xi's small body, Steve said after hesitating.

Yesterday's cake of unknown origin still made Steve pay attention, he couldn't leave Ye Xi at home alone and let him run around.This kid is too good at running, this is not New York, they are not familiar with each other, in case something happens.That's why Steve said that, bring people with you, and you can rest assured after watching them.

Ye Xi thought for a while and said, "Okay."

Then after breakfast, he went to the wheat fields with Steve and Bucky.

Bucky's grandma gave him a little basket, along with a loaf of brown bread and a large boiled potato, for his lunch.Steve brought him a certain straw hat, and the sun at noon was very bright and very drying.

Grandma Bucky looked at him wearing a straw hat and carrying a small basket, and said with a smile, "You really look like a little girl."

"..." Ye Xi.

Ye Xi followed Steve and Bucky to the wheat field. There were already many people in the field. They saw Steve and Bucky raised their heads and said hello, "Bucky, who is that kid?"

"It's Steve's brother."

"It's my brother."

Bucky and Steve said, the people working in the wheat field looked at Ye Xi who was carrying a small basket and smiled kindly, "This kid looks really good-looking."

Ye Xi has the illusion that he has strayed into a pack of wolves... These people are strong and strong, because the weather is hot, the sun is already very hot at eight o'clock in the morning, and everyone takes off their shirts to work, showing their bulging muscles With bulging arms and chests, everyone has six-pack abs, bronze skin, stained with sweat, with the beauty of wild strength.

With sickles in their hands, they quickly cut the wheat, chatting and laughing from time to time.The American guy in this village looks really strong.Bucky said that because of the need for work, they need to do a lot of farm work every year. When they are free, they also find other things to do to subsidize the family, so everyone has trained strong muscles.

In this group of bronze-colored muscular men, there appeared a white and thin white chicken.Ye Xi turned his head and looked at his brother who also took off his shirt but obviously had a wrong style of painting, with a horrible expression on his face.Even when it comes to cutting wheat, Steve's speed is a bit slower than others.Looking at him, Ye Xi had the illusion of seeing himself in a few years.

Really... the future is dark!

Starting tomorrow, drink an extra glass of milk every day!Ye Xi secretly made up his mind.

Ye Xi obviously can't do the physical work of harvesting wheat. The Rogers family has genetic problems. Both Steve and he are white and thin. It seems that they are not capable of heavy work.In fact, Steve's best friend Bucky helps the family a lot in their daily life.In Ye Xi's eyes, Bucky is like a little angel.For example, once, his brother was beaten by the enemy and came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face.The next day, Bucky went out alone and beat up all the punks who beat up his brother.I am really touched by my good friends in the United States, Barnes brand, you deserve it!

Ye Xi was carrying a small basket, seeing the fallen ears of wheat in the wheat field.Don't underestimate these humble ears of wheat, they are quite a lot when picked up.In the wheat field, there are quite a few people like Ye Xi picking ears of wheat, most of them are children of six or seven years old, and the older ones go to the field to harvest wheat with adults.Children in the countryside are already headed home. In fact, in the Great Depression of the United States, even in New York, many children go out to work.It doesn't matter if you sneak around, even if it's delivering a milk newspaper, it's something that can support yourself and your family.

A child as old as Ye Xi is already cutting wheat in the field with a sickle, Ye Xi feels ashamed looking at it, and feels like he is eating soft food.Compared with the hard work of harvesting wheat, picking ears of wheat is as easy as playing.Seeing him unfamiliar, the children in the field secretly glanced at him one by one. The main reason was that Ye Xi was good-looking, with blond hair and blue eyes, just like the little angels in the Bible.At the beginning, Ye Xi could make those noble ladies out of their pockets on the streets of New York with a single face, and here, his charm is not diminished.You can tell by looking at the kids who are sneaking eyes at him.

After picking it up for a while, Ye Xi didn't want to pick it up anymore.With a sullen face, he ran up to Steve.

"What's wrong? Hill." Steve stopped what he was doing and asked.

"I also want to cut wheat." Ye Xi said.

Steve was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said, "No, you're too young."

"But they can do it!" Ye Xi stretched out his finger and pointed to several teenagers who were about the same age as him who were harvesting wheat and said, "Why can they do it? I can't?"

"..." Steve.

What does this tell Steve?Because they are stronger and stronger than you.If he said this, he guaranteed that the narrow-minded Hill would be so angry that he would ignore him for a few days.

Steve hesitated, but Bucky, who listened to the conversation between the two brothers, didn't have that concern. He only heard a burst of laughter, and Bucky interjected, "Look at them."

Bucky pointed to the muscular upper bodies of those teenagers, and said, "Take off your clothes and compare with them. If you are half as strong as them, then I will give you a sickle."

The men around also let out good-natured laughter when they heard the words, even the teenagers who were pointed at by Bucky grinned, and then secretly looked at Ye Xi.I thought to myself, this person looks really beautiful.It's prettier than their school's school belle.

"..." Ye Xi.

"..." Steve.

Ye Xi was purely pissed off, while Steve, who was also thin and muscular, just felt an arrow shot in his knee, Bucky, I really want to beat you up!These two brothers are really about to break their knees.

In the end, still unable to hold back Ye Xi, Bucky threw him a sickle.The main reason is that face matters, a man can't lose face if he loses anything, Ye Xi can lose face even without hesitation, but he just can't lose face.So he dropped the little basket and the straw hat off his head, but... he didn't take off his coat.His soul comes from that ancient traditional country in the East, but he is still very conservative and shy. It's too indecent!

Seeing him like this, the men around joked again: "Look, Steve, your brother looks like a conservative little girl."

"..." Ye Xi.

It's like kneeling down to this group of unrestrained country guys, opening their mouths to make dirty jokes and make fun of people.

That's enough!

************

Ye Xi was also stubborn, he just insisted on following the group of people to cut the wheat for a day, gritted his teeth and didn't complain.Seeing him like this, the others put away their jokes one after another, and praised him as a man. Although he looks like a woman, he is definitely a handle.

"..." Ye Xi.

With this kind of praise, Ye Xi really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

After finishing their work, everyone went home in the evening.

Ye Xi was sweating all over, walking home tired and hungry, his palms were prickly, it was cut by sharp wheat leaves.

And just as he was walking back with the people in the field, in the dark forest of the cave, there was the old church.

A handsome priest with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a luxurious white ancient robe, sat alone in the garden.In front of him was a plate of baked golden cookies, a piece of delicate cream cake, and a cup of cold black tea.

The priest sat at the round table with his back straight, his handsome face expressionless, and his dark blue eyes dark and deep.

Today, he didn't get the person he was waiting for.
